Sziget Festival 2024

[poelim]

Just when i thought it couldn’t get any worse. Sorry but this is just very bad imo

[FestivalJamie]

Janelle Monae being promoted as a headliner on same day as Sam Smith. 
 

skrillex as headliner with Fred Again.

others are standalone headliners.

[Lambert]

Pretty underwhelming for Halsey

[sandorbeni]

We're missing the headliner for the 7th

[Newjem]

Well, that’s a Monday ticket for me. Hopefully, the potential Fred/Skrillex/Four Tet set will happen🤞

[bunnyv]

We still don’t have a headliner for Wednesday?

[rowexx]

Liam & Stormzy also cohead

[Dukkai]

wow.. it seems I'll need to get myself familiar with ticketmaster

[poelim]

On august 7 we haven’t got a headliner yet right? Or is tom odell supposed to be the headliner?

I don’t think Tom Odell would headline. He’s probably sub

[Tinsel19]

How disappointing.

I completely agree but with this lineup i wouldn’t be surprised lol

weird they’re selling day tickets if they haven’t announced the headliner yet

Agreed. We knew most of them anyway but Halsey as an addition is very uninteresting.

Don’t think it’s much better than the first wave tbh

They’ll probably just throw Macklemore in on the third wave, like they do every year.

There is no way he's a headliner. Anywhere.

[bunnyv]

Well I hope the negotiations are going well with Jungle,Kaytranada and Charli XCX

[Lambert]

What happened to the Editors ?

 

forget it, seen it

Im not surprised, with the clues we had, it was already known its a weak one again.

 

Huge F for the bookers. Their only excuse could be the lack of adequate funds.

[poelim]

Shame i’ve booked everything already otherwise i would seriously consider selling my tickets

They should have honestly tried for SZA, as the female headliner. I know Lana was out a while ago so it would have been the next strongest big name.

what I find particularly concerning is how many names they are ‘promoting’ up to headliners. Liam Gallagher, Stormzy, Halsey, Janelle - all ‘promoted’ to headliners when on a normal year they would probably be subs.

luckily, we haven't booked anything yet so I'll try and offload mine via ticketmaster

[Lambert]

That Monday is gonna be a mental one for me 

 

Fred Again/Overmono/Four Tet/Skrillex and then getting to the inevitable dj set from the 3 of them, maybe even with Overmono as well could be 5 of them going B2B

[CCester]

It’s defo better than the first wave, but it’s still below average overall. I’d reevaluate my ties with my booking manager if I were Sziget. 

[ketomika22]

headliners is one thing. could be better, but its not really amazing anywhere this summer.

 

but oh man the undercards, so many f**king amazing bands all around, and Sziget could get maybe 2 or 3.

 

where are all the instruments, eh?
